SUMMARY:Jack Carr Author Event
DESCRIPTION:#1 New York Times bestselling author and former Navy SEAL Jack Carr will be in person in Coronado in a Library event on the evening of May 19. Jack Carr’s first book\, The Terminal List\, is set in Coronado and will be aired on Amazon Prime Video in July this year starring Chris Pratt. He is also the author of True Believer\, Savage Son\, and The Devil’s Hand and the host of the Danger Close Podcast. Carr will be discussing his latest book\, the thriller In the Blood. To accommodate a larger audience\, the Library will be using the Grand Room at the next door Spreckels Center\, to host the event from 7 to 8:30 pm. Entry is free on a first come\, first served basis. Books will be available for sale at the event for the author to sign. \nAbout the book\, In the Blood: \nA woman boards a plane in the African country of Burkina Faso having just completed a targeted assassination for the state of Israel. Two minutes later\, her plane is blown out of the sky. \nOver 6\,000 miles away\, former Navy SEAL James Reece watches the names and pictures of the victims on cable news. One face triggers a distant memory of a Mossad operative attached to the CIA years earlier in Iraq–a woman with ties to the intelligence services of two nations…a woman Reece thought he would never see again. \nReece enlists friends new and old across the globe to track down her killer\, unaware that he may be walking into a deadly trap. \nThis program is free and seating is general-admission; however\, if you would like to pre-order a book and get priority seating\, please call Warwick’s at 858-454-0347.

SUMMARY:San Diego Shakespeare Society Presents: Shakespeare Authorship Forum
DESCRIPTION:For hundreds of years people have questioned whether William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon actually wrote the plays and sonnets credited under his name\, in view of his limited education and experience. Mark Twain\, Walt Whitman\, Sigmund Freud\, and Malcom X\, to name a few\, have expressed such doubts. \nThe audience will watch a 30-minute documentary\, “Last Will & Testament\,” which provides an overview of the question and viewpoints both from the so-called “Orthodox” school and from the doubters. The film will be followed by a discussion\, led by a moderator from the San Diego Shakespeare Society\, of all points of view on the topic. \nThe event will include a Zoom appearance by Cheryl Eagan-Donovan\, a noted documentary filmmaker\, who will argue in favor of a leading author candidate\, Edward de Vere\, Earl of Oxford\, a highly educated nobleman in the court of Queen Elizabeth\, who traveled extensively in Italy where so many of the plays take place. \nThis is a hybrid event\, meaning it will take place in-person\, but people can also watch and participate from elsewhere via Zoom. To do so\, please register using the link below\, and you will receive the Zoom link shortly before the event.  \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/shakespeare-authorship-forum-in-person-coronado-library-and-via-zoom-tickets-338793700077?aff=odeimcmailchimp&mc_cid=0260f261e6&mc_eid=311eb1849a \n

SUMMARY:UFC Fighter Tim Kennedy in Person - "Scars and Stripes"
DESCRIPTION:Decorated Green Beret sniper and UFC headliner Tim Kennedy will be at the Coronado Public Library on Monday\, June 27 at 7 pm to discuss and sign his new book Scars and Stripes. This inspirational memoir offers lessons on how to unlock the best version of yourself\, from someone who knows that failure is just one step toward success. \nThrough vivid\, wild anecdotes – such as saying he only feels alive right before he’s about to die – Kennedy reveals all the dumb\, violent\, embarrassing\, and undeniably heroic things he’s done in his life\, including multiple combat missions in Afghanistan\, building a school in Texas for elementary kids\, and creating two multimillion-dollar businesses. He has learned that failure isn’t the end – rather\, it’s the first step toward unearthing the best version of yourself and finding success\, no matter how overwhelming the setbacks may feel. \nOriginally from Atascadero\, California\, Kennedy joined the Army in 2004. After completing Ranger School he was assigned to the 7th Special Forces Group and was deployed on multiple combat missions in Afghanistan and Iraq as a sniper\, sniper instructor\, and principal combatives instructor. While in the Army\, he also honed his mixed martial arts fighting skills\, which he had originally developed at ‘The Pit’ in Atascadero. He returned to mixed martial arts in 2009 at Strikeforce Challengers and in January 2013 was brought over to the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). While now retired from fighting\, his professional fighting record has him with just six losses in twenty-four matches. Today\, Kennedy is the founder and head of Apogee Cedar Park: an Acton Academy school in Austin\, Texas. He is also co-owner of Ranger Up and the CEO of Sheepdog Response. \nFor more information\, head to cplevents.org.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Pulitzer and National Book Award Finalist Marianne Wiggins
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, August 11th at 7 pm\, Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s\, will host Marianne Wiggins as she discusses and signs her new book\, Properties of Thirst. Marianne Wiggins is the author of eight novels including John Dollar and Evidence of Things Unseen\, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the National Book Award. She has won a Whiting Award\, a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship\, the Heidinger Kafka Prize\, and was shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction. She lives in Venice\, California. \nThis program is free and seating is general-admission; however\, if you would like to pre-order a book and get priority seating\, please call Warwick’s at 858-454-0347 or visit their website. \nAbout the book\, Properties of Thirst: \n“This magnificent novel opens every little nerve of language and sends jolts of electricity along the spine. It’s a love story\, and a family tale\, and a song of history. It’s about shame and loss and recovery and beauty. It’s a novel to cherish\, composed with great humanity and humour.” ~ Colum McCann \n“This is a novel I wish I could have written. Keen\, unsparing\, and compassionate\, Properties of Thirst reveals a world and a history I thought I knew\, in language so beautiful\, it took my breath away. Vividly alive\, these characters mirror our present moment\, our complex ties to this land and to each other\, our most profound alienations and our fiercest loves.” ~ Ruth Ozeki \nRockwell “Rocky” Rhodes has spent years fiercely protecting his California ranch from the LA Water Corporation. It is here where he and his beloved wife Lou raised their twins\, Sunny and Stryker\, and it is here where Rocky has mourned Lou in the years since her death.\nAs Sunny and Stryker reach the cusp of adulthood\, the country teeters on the brink of war. Stryker decides to join the fight\, deploying to Pearl Harbor not long before the bombs strike. Soon\, Rocky and his family find themselves facing yet another incomprehensible tragedy.\nRocky is determined to protect his remaining family and the land where they’ve loved and lost so much. But when the government decides to build a Japanese-American internment camp next to the ranch\, Rocky realizes that the land faces even bigger threats than the LA watermen he’s battled for years. Complicating matters is the fact that the idealistic Department of the Interior man assigned to build the camp\, who only begins to understand the horror of his task after it may be too late\, becomes infatuated with Sunny and entangled with the Rhodes family.\nProperties of Thirst is a novel that is both universal and intimate. It is the story of a changing American landscape and an examination of one of the darkest periods in this country’s past\, told through the stories of the individual loves and losses that weave together to form the fabric of our shared history. Ultimately\, it is an unflinching distillation of our nation’s essence—and a celebration of the bonds of love and family that persist against all odds. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Author Elena Armas in Conversation with Author Lauren Billings
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s bookstore\, welcomes Elena Armas\, author of The American Roommate Experience\, in conversation with Lauren Billings\, who co-writes young-adult and adult novels with a friend under the pseudonym Christina Lauren. Armas is kicking off her international tour with this event. \nThis event is free and first-come\, first-served. A limited number of premium-view reserved seats are available for those who pre-order a copy of the book by contacting Warwick’s via https://www.warwicks.com/armas-2022-reserved-seat or calling the store at 858-454-0347. One reserved seat per book. \nAbout The American Roommate Experience: \nRosie Graham has a problem. A few\, actually. She just quit her well-paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasn’t told her family and now has terrible writer’s block. Then\, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Lina’s spare key while she’s out of town. But Rosie doesn’t know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas\, who Rosie has been stalking – for lack of a better word – on Instagram for the last few months. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armor. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel\, has a distracting grin\, and an irresistible accent. Oh\, and he cooks. \nLucas offers to let Rosie stay with him\, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: He’ll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly\, online crush is totally under control – but Lucas’s time in New York has an expiration date\, and six weeks may not be enough\, for either her or her deadline.

SUMMARY:Spoilers Book Club: "The Pursuit of Happyness" by Chris Gardner
DESCRIPTION:The Spoilers Book Club reads books that have been turned into movies. We read the book and get together to watch the film. We compare the two and discuss what we did and didn’t like. \nEvent Details\n\nAt the age of twenty\, Milwaukee native Chris Gardner\, just out of the Navy\, arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine. Considered a prodigy in scientific research\, he surprised everyone and himself by setting his sights on the competitive world of high finance. Yet no sooner had he landed an entry-level position at a prestigious firm than Gardner found himself caught in a web of incredibly challenging circumstances that left him as part of the city’s working homeless and with a toddler son. Motivated by the promise he made to himself as a fatherless child to never abandon his own children\, the two spent almost a year moving among shelters\, “HO-tels\,” soup lines\, and even sleeping in the public restroom of a subway station. \nNever giving in to despair\, Gardner made an astonishing transformation from being part of the city’s invisible poor to being a powerful player in its financial district. \nMore than a memoir of Gardner’s financial success\, this is the story of a man who breaks his own family’s cycle of men abandoning their children. Mythic\, triumphant\, and unstintingly honest\, The Pursuit of Happyness conjures heroes like Horatio Alger and Antwone Fisher\, and appeals to the very essence of the American Dream.

SUMMARY:Author Craig Johnson Discusses New Novel "Hell and Back"
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s bookstore\, welcomes novelist Craig Johnson\, whose new book is Hell and Back: A Longmire Mystery. \n\nThis event is free and first-come\, first-served. A limited number of premium-view reserved seats are available for those who pre-order a copy of the book by contacting Warwick’s via https://www.warwicks.com/johnson-2022-reserved-seat or calling the store at 858-454-0347. One reserved seat per book. \nJohnson is The New York Times bestselling author of the Walt Longmire mystery novels\, which are the basis for Longmire\, the hit Netflix original drama. The books have won multiple awards: Le Prix du Polar Nouvel Observateur/Bibliobs\, the Wyoming Historical Association’s Book of the Year\, Le Prix 813\, the Western Writers of America’s Spur Award\, the Mountains & Plains Book of the Year\, the SNCF Prix de Polar\, Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year\, The Watson Award\, Library Journal‘s Best Mystery of the Year\, the Rocky\, and the Will Rogers Award for Fiction. Spirit of Steamboat was selected by the Wyoming State Library as the inaugural One Book Wyoming. Johnson lives in Ucross\, Wyoming\, population 25. \nAbout Hell and Back: \nWhat if you woke up lying in the middle of the street in the infamous town of Fort Pratt\, Montana\, where 30 young Native American boys perished in a tragic 1896 boarding school fire? What if every person you encountered in that endless night was dead? What if you were covered in blood and missing a bullet from the gun holstered on your hip? What if there was something out there in the yellowed skies — along with the deceased and the smell of ash and dust — something the Northern Cheyenne refer to as the Éveohtsé-heómese\, the Wandering Without\, the Stealer of Souls? What if the only way you know who you are is because your name is printed in the leather sweatband of your cowboy hat\, and what if it says your name is Walt Longmire — but you don’t remember him? \nIn Hell and Back\, the eighteenth installment of the Longmire series\, author Craig Johnson takes the beloved sheriff to the very limits of his sanity to do battle with the most dangerous advisory he’s ever faced — himself.

SUMMARY:Author Event with Javier Zamora
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s Bookstore\, will host Javier Zamora as he discusses and signs his new book\, Solito: A Memoir.\n\nThis event is free and first-come\, first-served. A limited number of premium-view reserved seats are available for those who pre-order a copy of the book by contacting Warwick’s via https://www.warwicks.com/event/zamora-2022 or calling the store at 858-454-0347. One reserved seat per book. \nZamora was born in El Salvador in 1990. His father fled the country when he was a year old\, and his mother when he was about to turn five. Both parents’ migrations were caused by the U.S.-funded Salvadoran Civil War. When he was nine Javier migrated through Guatemala\, Mexico\, and the Sonoran Desert. His debut poetry collection\, Unaccompanied\, explores the impact of the war and immigration on his family. Zamora has been a Stegner Fellow at Stanford and a Radcliffe Fellow at Harvard and holds fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation. \nAbout the Book: \nTrip. My parents started using that word about a year ago: “one day\, you’ll take a trip to be with us. Like an adventure.” \nZamora’s adventure is a 3\,000-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador\, through Guatemala and Mexico\, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a “coyote” hired to lead them to safety\, Zamora expects his trip to last two short weeks. \nAt nine years old\, all Zamora can imagine is rushing into his parents’ arms\, snuggling in bed between them\, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips\, relentless desert treks\, pointed guns\, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family. \nA memoir as gripping as it is moving\, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey\, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Zamora’s story\, but it’s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home. \n

She is also a world-class athlete and a member of the genius society Mensa. Davis is now recognized for her tireless advocacy for women and girls as founder and chair of the nonprofit Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media\, which engages film and television creators to dramatically increase the percentage of female characters\, and reduce gender stereotyping in media made for children. \nDying of Politeness: A Memoir is Davis’ story\, one woman’s journey to fight for herself and ultimately live a bolder\, freer\, more authentic life. “In this book\,” says Davis\, “I’ll reveal the ways in which my public life\, the movies\, the advocacy\, and my relationships have impacted and empowered the private me\, and I hope\, inspire my readers to expand their own sense of power.” Davis regales readers with tales of a career playing everything from a soap opera star in her underwear to a housewife-turned-road-warrior\, a baseball phenomenon\, an amnesiac assassin\, the mother of a rodent\, and the president of the United States.
